/** @class Snag

  @ingroup core

  Snag deals with carbon / nitrogen fluxes from the forest until the reach soil pools.

  Snag lives on the level of the ResourceUnit; carbon fluxes from trees enter Snag, and parts of the biomass of snags

  is subsequently forwarded to the soil sub model.

  Carbon is stored in three classes (depending on the size)

  The Snag dynamics class uses the following species parameter:

  cnFoliage, cnFineroot, cnWood, snagHalflife, snagKSW
